I am tring to get some text become a link in a Flex3 app, but getting an error I know the data is getting pulled in, in this case I hard coded the xml with http://www.espn.com for testing so it is not the link.
<mx:Repeater id="imageRepeater" dataProvider="{imageData.lastResult.panel}"> <mx:Panel id="MainPanel" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout=" absolute" title="{imageRepeater.currentItem.title}" width="450" height="253" themeColor="#C4BA88" borderColor="#C4BA88" headerColors="#C4BA88" roundedBottomCorners="true" backgroundImage="@Embed(source='images/backgroungLeftLogo.jpg')" cornerRadius="15"> <mx:TextArea id="panelSub" x="109" y="24" width="316" height="33" alpha="0" fontFamily="Gunplay" htmlText="{imageRepeater.currentItem.sub}" fontSize="22 "/> <mx:TextArea id="panelBody" x="109" y="56" width="316" height="136" alpha="0" fontFamily="Gunplay" htmlText="{imageRepeater.currentItem.body}" fontSize=" 16" textAlign="center" themeColor="#C4BA88"/> <mx:Text text="{imageRepeater.currentItem.linkText}" click="navigateToURL(* new* URLRequest({imageRepeater.currentItem.link}), *'blank'*);" x="109" y=" 200" fontFamily="Gunplay" fontSize="14"/> <!-- the errors are on this line --> </mx:Panel> </mx:Repeater> the above code will not compile: 1084 : Syntax error: expection colon before dot. 1084 : Syntax error: expection identifier before rightbrace. thanks for the help, D
